Does 3Web cable throttle P2P traffic?

I have searched for all posts on forums, but can't get a definitive answer.

Is 3web's CABLE service, being on leased Rogers line, throttle P2P traffic? What about newsgroup traffic?

Secondly, I notice that 3web doesn't offer "Platinum" service in the GTA, despite those speeds being offered by Rogers - is this just due to an un-updated website?

CIA is unthrottled since you'll be on their own network. Rogers could throttle them, but has not done so.

I live in downtown Toronto (M5S XXX postal code)

Please confirm my unthrottled ISP options, which I believe are:

- 3Web Cable
- Acanac DSL (using SSH tunneling)
- Teksavvy DSL (using MLPPP)
- Primu DSL (providing im on GCC ADSL2+ profile and have the Triple Value Bundle)
